In the essay “What is Intelligence, Anyway?”, by Issac Asimov, he addresses that intelligence isn’t about getting a high score on academic tests. A person can be knowledgeable about their passions and can have intellectual interests in one or two subjects but may be at odds in others.  I believe intelligence is when an individual has knowledge in an area, not just in general. Issac talks about his intelligence in academics but he isn’t intelligent enough to maintain his car. As his mechanic fixes his car he thinks that his mechanic wouldn’t score higher than him. But if Issac were to do what he did, he would be a “moron”. Since his mechanic knows more about his expertise than he does. My strengths are being responsible, hard worker, and organized. And my interests are dancing, trying new foods, and doing hands on work.

My top three intelligence based on the multiple intelligence survey were Intrapersonal, Logical/Mathematical, and Interpersonal. I think these results are pretty accurate because I am able to differentiate between my own feelings and thoughts. My Intrapersonal intelligence helps me to adjust my approach to particular situations. Also, it helps me communicate more effectively with others, when meeting new people. My Logical/mathematical intelligence correlates with my interests like solving puzzles. Lastly, my Interpersonal intelligence compares with my strength of working alone and being self-motivated. And being able to read people’s mood and tone.
